Smoke 'n' Barrel
About the Business
Welcome to Smoke 'n' Barrel, a renowned establishment located at 616 Ferry Road in Woolston, Christchurch, New Zealand. As a prominent food destination and point of interest, Smoke 'n' Barrel offers a unique dining experience that is sure to satisfy your taste buds.
Founded by chefs Chris Geary and Cory Blackburn, Smoke 'n' Barrel is the result of their shared passion for traditional cooking and "slow food." Their journey began in January 2017 when they met while working in a café in the Christchurch CBD. Chris, driven by his culinary creativity, constructed his first barrel smoker from a hot water cylinder and quickly gained popularity at markets, festivals, and events around Canterbury.
With time, Smoke 'n' Barrel evolved and developed down-to-earth catering menus, earning a reputation for delivering exceptional food experiences. In August 2018, they took a significant step forward by opening a container restaurant in downtown Christchurch. As the city progressed and became less transitional, Smoke 'n' Barrel found a new home and joined forces with Brew Academy for nearly three years. Finally, in March 2023, they proudly established their very own location at 616 Ferry Road.

From Akaroa salmon to smoked pork and lamb, our menu offers a variety of mouthwatering options. We also accommodate dietary restrictions, including gluten-free choices. Timothy and Jenny Fife were so impressed with our catering for their wedding that they invited us back to cater their one-year party.

Reviews
"Wow what a great location! This is just what Woolston needed - a great option for dinner and drinks and have some laughs with excellent and friendly staff. Nothing is a problem and the staff that serve you love being in hospitality. They are freaking awesome. Get in before it gets too busy!"
"Went there for the Sunday roast with the family which included my 18month old daughter. They were really accommodating and the bar and wait staff were really friendly and good with my daughter. They had board games for the kids and high chairs. The roast was really good and a good range of beers. Highly recommend"
"First time here with a bunch of discerning friends....wow, what an amazing restaurant. Every single one of us loved it so much. Can't pick our favourite dishes as they were all 10/10. It was great to be able to have a chat with the owner about the history of this great place. His energy and friendliness shows such a passion for his food. We will all be spreading the word and will be back. Congrats team."
"We had a amazing meat platter to share it came fully loaded with veg, slaw and cornbread. Food and service was top notch and super relaxed vibe, will definitely be back for another great night"
